RhizoSorb delivers on higher phosphorous fertilizer ROI

"RhizoSorb is our patented phosphate efficiency technology that's built into the fertilizer granule. This is essentially a next-generation MAP or DAP fertilizer replacement. We're twice as efficient at feeding the plant. Therefore, we can apply less product on a per-acre basis, provide that grower an upfront cost savings of around 10 per cent per acre, and then give the same or maybe slightly better yield."

"RhizoSorb is a swift, simple change of asking your retailer for RhizoSorb instead of MAP. Because growers typically use about one-third less product compared to MAP, there's also a logistical advantage at seeding. Fewer fills mean more acres planted per day, and the lower salt index improves seed safety in seed-row applications."

"Backed by hundreds of small-plot trials and large-scale field trials across 19 countries, the product has now been applied on more than a million acres across the U.S. and Canada."

RhizoSorb is a patented phosphate efficiency technology integrated into fertilizer granules, developed at Penn State University and commercialized by Phospholutions. It functions as a next-generation replacement for traditional monoammonium phosphate (MAP) or diammonium phosphate (DAP) fertilizers. The product uses metal oxide technology to achieve twice the phosphate efficiency, allowing growers to apply one-third less product per acre while maintaining or improving yields. This results in approximately 10% upfront cost savings and an average ROI of $20 per acre. Implementation requires only a simple retailer request, and the reduced application rate provides logistical advantages including fewer equipment fills and improved seed safety. The product has been validated through hundreds of trials across 19 countries and applied on over one million acres in North America.
